In Loving Memory of Bill Hawley

  William Quah Hawley, age 21, died in his sleep on 27, September 2004. Bill was a graduate of Norcross High School and worked at Barnes and Noble in Norcross. He was a talented musician, winning the award for most promising young musician at the International School of Nairobi, Kenya, which he attended from 1993-1999. Bill loved music, cars, friends and family.

Bill is the beloved son of Bill and Carol Hawley of Norcross, brother, Alan Hawley, grandson of William B. and Doris J. Hawley of Melbourne, Florida and Loh Shiew Yong of Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. He is missed by his aunts Swee Lean Ohsaki (Nagoya, Japan), Quah Gaik Lean (Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia), Ah Ying (Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia) and Faith Hawley (Lorton, Virginia), his uncles Norio Ohsaki (Nagoya, Japan), Charlie Ng and Alan Quah (Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia), and Tom Hawley (Lorton, Virginia) his cousins, Marcus and Kenneth Ng and Aaron Quah (Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia), and Josh and Dana Hawley (San Antonio, Texas and Ithaca, New York), and his beloved dog Lucky.

His parents, grandparents and all his family are joined by his many friends and coworkers in lamenting Bill's early death. They remember his charm, intelligence, and courageous spirit and can only wonder what this unrealized potential, cut off too soon, would have accomplished.
